"Heh," Lucrethia Woodland chuckled.
She raised her eyes to meet Ronan's.
"Congratulations, Alpha Ronan. You have truly worked hard to make me out to be the villain."
"Madam Lucrethia Woodland, what do you say about Alpha Kieran's testimony just now?"
The elderly laughed.
"I don't even know that girl by name, let alone that she was part of another pack. All I knew was that she found a job in my household. We were very generous to her, but she had the audacity to steal a precious belonging of mine.
When confronted, she tried to kill me. Naturally, I had no other choice but to kill her in self-defense. Now do tell me, Mr. Gravecrown, is that wrong?"
Gregor parted his lips in amazement.
"No, of course not..."
"Pray tell, what is this precious belonging of yours that Shayla stole?" Elder Aaron asked.
Lucrethia turned to look at him and flashed him the sweetest smile.
